The selling of dogs is happening in Moran market, Seongnam - known as the largest open-air dog market in South Korea.

The market, where up to 80,000 dogs are being sold and slaughtered, is located right outside of Seoul. The dogs are eventually made into soup that is sold for $8, according to The Daily Mail.

In May 2017, the Seongnam City government claimed that the market would close and that they would "ultimately stop the dog meat trade." But the pictures captured by The Daily Mail show that puppies are being sold for as little as $9.20.

Dogs are put in freezing cages before being slaughtered. Their fur is burned off and carcasses are put up on display.
